Measurement Positions

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audysssey MultEQ® takes measurements at up to eight positions within the lis- tening area.

■1st measurement position

This is the center position of your listening area, or the listening position if there’s only one listener.

■2nd–8th measurement positions

These are the other listening positions (i.e., the places where the other listeners will sit). You can measure up to eight positions.

The following examples show some typical home theater seating arrangements. Choose the one that best matches yours, and position the microphone accordingly when prompted.
